Free Trade.

The reduction Of internal revenue and the
taking off revenue stamps from Proprietary
Medicines, no doubt has largely benefited
the consumers, as well as relieving the bur-
den Of home manufacturers. Especially is
this the case with GREEN'S august Hogory
and BoseAee's German Syrup, as the reduc-
tion Of thirty-six cents per dozen has been
added to increase the size Of the bottles con.
tanning these remedies, thereby giving one.
fifth more medicine in theH7s cent size. The
august F7oaoey for Dyspepsia and Liver Com
plant, and the German, Syrup for Cough
and Lung troubles, have perhaps. the larg.
est sale Of any medicines in the world. The
advantage Of increased size of the bottles
will be greatly appreciated by the sick and
afflicted, in every town and village in civil.

Drunk and Disorderly.

Last Sunday night Louis Hayes got hila-
riously drunk, and because he could not
find his room in the Golden Eagle lodging
house, he undertook to tear that structure
down. He had not made much Roadway
before Sheriff Brann laid fatherly hand on
him and conducted him across the road to
his lodging house, where Mr.. Hayes spent
the balance Of the night. He was let out
the next morning after having the riot act
acclaimed to him in mesterly manner.

sEAsONABLE SUGGESTIONS.

At their next meeting the Board Of County
Commissioners will be called upon to fix the
rate Of taxation for the ensuing year. Two
years ago the Board, in the interest Of econ
omy reduced the rate Of taxation from 50 o5
to s. IS per 500. Since that reduction the
balance in the General Fund Of the county
has diminished from $4,000 81 to SII,
200 81, q reduction Of more than so per
cent, with probability that the county will
be short Of funds, before taxes will come in
this Fall. In the year 1881 money was bor-
rowed and bonds OF the county were issued
to the amount of $4,000. These bonds
bear interest at the rate Of 8 per cent, ag
gregating $4,000 per annum, They were is
sued for fifteen years, with the privilege OF
redemption at the end Of FIVE. years. If the
old rate Of taxation had been maintained,
about $40, 900 Of these ponds might now be
retired and about $500, per year saved in in
rerest. This would be something in favor. Of
economy. This saving in interest alone,
during the remaining ten years, would be
sufficient to retire $1,000 Of the remaining
bonds, and leave but 81, 900 more to be pro.
vided for. There is scheme on foot to re-
fund this Indebtedness and procure the money
at a lower ate Of interest. This may or may
not succeed. II it succeeds the county will
be called upon to pay $500 in interest be-
fore these bonds will be redeemable. If we
would redeem them at that time, provisions
must be made Immediately for that purpose.
Would it not be as we'll to let the bonds re-
main as they are and levy the full rate of
taxation allowable for the Interest and Sink.
ing Fund and retire the bonds as rapidly as
possible. At 50 cents per 500, with prop
erty at the present valuation this Fund would
receive over 81 900 per anuum; IS, 900 could
in this way be retired in 1888, and greater
amount each succeeding year until all would
be paid. If you really wish to economize,
you must stop this continual outlay for in.

Martins Looking for Mates.

HELENA, September 2 "A Butte special
to the Independent says: An unusual
and amusing coincidence has been the talk
of the town to-day. There are two Peter
Martins in Butte, one of them an employee
Of the Wake-up-Jim mine, and the other a
night bar-keeper at the Comique Both
had wives in Portland, and few days ago
the miner telegraphed his wife in Portland
money to come on to Butte, and told her
to come at once. The money and message
were received by the wife of the barkeeper.
Her return message was delivered to the
miner Martin To-day he went to the de-
pot to meet his wife, and was disappointed
and alarmed at not finding her. Mrs Mar
tin, the wife of the barkeeper, was also dis
at not finding her husband at
the depot. After some search she discover
ed him asleep in his room. Explanations
followed, the miner Martin was looked up
and his money refunded, and the first Mrs.
Martin will arrive in Butte as soon as the
train can bring her.

THE CASCADE COUNTY BILL.
The City Council and Board of Trade of
Helena Take Action in Opposition to
the Measure.

HELENA, September 3-The Helena
people have just walked up to the fact
that the Cascade bill takes away her
county in the east almost to the confu-
ence of the sacred precincts of the Prick
ly Pear.
The city council and board of trade
have taken concerted and organized ac-
tion, and several we'll known citizens are
circulating petitions against the new
county and there are heaps of trouble
ahead for the bill IN the house.
The following are the resolutions of the
board of trade:
WHEREAS, Lewis and Clarke is one Of the
smallest counties of the territory; and,
WHEREAS, Dismembered and dispos-
sessed of the area proposed to be taken by
the new county of Cascade, as passed by
one branch of the legislative assembly,
Lewis and Clarke county will be shorn of
large amount Of territory which natur-
ally and rightfully belong to her precinct
and domain; and,
WHEREAS, The completion Of the Mon
tana Central railroad now near at hand
will bring the citizens Of the remotest
part of the county within a few hours
ride as now located; and,
WHEREAS, A large majority of the citi-
zens and taxpayers of Lewis and Clarke
are opposed to the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the
county by the bill for the creation of Cas-
cade county; and,
WHEREAS, The county obligation are
involved and the honor and integrity of
all citizens of the whole county are sol
emnly pledged for the payment and re-
demption of the same; therefore,
Resozued, That we, citizens of the coun-
ty OF Lewis & Clarke, in mass meeting as
sembled, are opposed, with majority of
our fellow citizens throughout the county
to the passage Of the new county bill of
Cascade, and the members of the house
are requested to oppose the same.
ResolUed, That a committee of five be
appointed to lay the proceedings of the
meeting before the legislature without
delay and ask postponement Of action on
the bill.
Chairman Davidson appointed Messrs.
E. D. Edgerton, G. K. Cole, A. j. Selig-
man, Massena Bullard and E. Beach, as
the committee.

gon Transcontinental receives a little more
than s5,O00000 in cash, of which part has
already been paid; gets rid of a block of
bonds for which it has no present sale,
and parts with a big block of Oregon
Navigation stock. The deal seems to suit
all parties. Northern Pacific people are
perfectly willing to see Willard come into
power again. Elijah Smith could not
elect his own board, but by compromise
he may get Willard back, with one or two
others who would not be obnoxious to the
rest of the board. Then Willard would be
IN position to harmonic matters.
Smiths friends say it was great move
on his part. Oregon Navigation debts
were pressing and unless they were paid
he could devote little attention to other
matters. Smith, Harris and Willard all
